Huh? What mod??
One of the usual youtubers has a video. Basically you pop off the wheels, unscrew the fender, you'll have to study it and either file or slice some of the plastic off, put it back together less the screw.

This allows the fender/mit to rotate back and down off the fist. I have some pics on my thread I think.

Yeah that PS OP is a small warrior. Really cool looking too. Someone you know may have seen him in person this weekend

Sounds like a handy mod! I still need to do that CW legends Rodimus mod you have posted.

Is that someone we know YOU?! DIDYA SEE?! :lol:

I noticed he made an appearance in the galleries! What did you think of him in-person? :MAXIMAL:

He was neat. I think don't he was every out of package, but a cool armored up version of prime.

I passed on the original Prime but bought the Clash version that was black and really liked it. Now I want the power surge one but I kinda don't want to buy the warrior again, but at the same time I don't want to spend the extra money to get that leader class version (despite the fact that it is very very cool). :MAXIMAL:

The big one looks great in bot mode but a little janky in alt mode.

Yeah he does, which is a point against him, but I love his robot mode, and the minicon chestplate and the gimmick do look pretty sweet, and he comes with the sword he has from the show too. :MAXIMAL:

Man I was just listening to a rock band called "Project 86", and a song by them came on called "Cyclonus". I had no idea that they made this song, but it's pretty obvious that it has inspiration from Transformers. Just look at the lyrics!

I thought it was bootiful. :-P

Oh I DO know. But the transformation part that really got to me, and of which I describe in the same way you just did, is the front lights and how they split to the side. I freaken LOVE that. I love when any toy does that. It fills out the robot in such an efficient way adding to the robot's shape and yet it's all alt mode integration. I just love this kind of stuff. So yeah, I can see what you like about this guy (and what you dont like, I too dislike the wheels). I think you and I feel the same way about Ironhide and Hot Rod as toys but we fell in love with the other toy :lol:

Even though I don't watch RiD, I am tempted to get some of the newer figures, along with legion Fixit.

Legion Fixit is boss. He's like a mini warrior (deluxe) figure. If you only get one, check that guy out. As a bonus he normally retails around $6. The warrior figures are fun, feel nice in the hands, have decent articulation and the unique transformations are refreshing.

I started with Bee and got more and more hooked with each figure. The current wave hitting shelves are some of the stronger figures and the upcoming new molds are very exciting.

As much as I like the bots, the cons are doing amazing. They are making so many good cons and it is awesome. Everything is utterly unique and I love them :MAXIMAL:

I canibalized him for Takarahoof. Not sure what I'm gonna do with the reject though. Stupid Toy Story 8-}

I was just browsing too. I swear I checked your thread yesterday and now I'm like 4 bloody pages behind?!

I had Shocky coming from eBay, but the seller had to refund. :-(

Now I'm kinda glad. I still want the figure, but I've decided to hold out for the inevitable darker purple repaint.

shajaki wrote:Alright. Deadlock, and the Drift mold in general:

What I gots now is Deadlock, United Drift, Gen. Drift, United Blurr, and TFCC SG Drift. I think that's it. In all honesty, Deadlock is probably my favorite. The deco is beautiful, and kinda random when you think about it: black, white, red, gold, and purple. But it all works in stunning harmony.

And yeah, the weapons are across the boards. Big sword and big gun. Awesome. But I do prefer the smaller drift blades over the pistols. And I wasn't actually going to pose him with the big sword (cause in his Con life he never had one right?) but that black blade and blood red writings is sooooo pretty. He is all teh sexy
